FAIR SHARE AGREEMENT a. Effective the beginning of the 1999-2000 school year, each bargaining unit member as a condition of his/her employment, on or before thirty (30) days from the date of commencement of duties or the effective date of this Agreement, whichever is later, shall join the Association or pay a fair share fee to the Association equivalent to the amount of dues uniformly required of members of Association, including local, state and national dues.
b. In the event that the bargaining unit member does not pay his/her fair share fee directly to the Association by a certain date as established by the Association, the Board shall deduct the fair share fee from the wages of the non-member.
c. Such fee shall be paid to the Association by the Board no later than ten (10) days following deduction.
d. In the event of any legal action against the Employer brought in a court or administrative agency because of its compliance with this Article, the Association agrees to defend such action, at its own expense and through its own counsel, provided:
1. The Employer gives immediate notice of such action in writing to the Association and permits the Association intervention as a party if it so desires, and
2. The Employer gives full and complete cooperation to the Association and its counsel in securing and giving evidence, obtaining witnesses and making relevant information available at both trial and all appellate levels.
e. The Association agrees that in any action so defended, it will indemnify and hold harmless the Employer from any liability for damages and costs imposed by a final judgment of a court or administrative agency as a direct consequence of the Employee’s non-negligent compliance with this Article. It is expressly understood that this save harmless provision will not apply to any claim, demand, suit or other form of liability which may arise as a result of any type of willful misconduct by the Board or the Board’s imperfect execution of the obligations imposed upon it by this Article.
f. The obligation to pay a fair share fee will not apply to any Employee who, on the basis of a bonafide religious xxxxx or teaching of a church or religious body of which such Employee is a member or a belief sincerely held with the strength of traditional religious views, objects to the payment of a fair share fee to the Association. Upon proper substantiation and collection of the entire fee, the Association will make payment on behalf of the Employee to a mutually agreeable non-religious charitable organization as per Association policy and the Rules and Regulations of the Illinois Educational Labor Relations Board.

4. In the event a faculty member objects to the amount of such fee, the Board shall continue to deduct the fee and the Board shall transmit the fee (or the portion of the fee in dispute) to the IELRB which shall hold the fee in escrow in an account established for that purpose.

5. If a faculty member declares the right of non-association based upon bona fide religious tenets or teaching, or a church, or religious body of which such faculty member is a member, such faculty member shall be required to pay an amount equal to the faculty member's proportionate share to a non- religious charitable organization mutually agreed upon by the faculty member and the CCCTU.

8. The Association agrees to indemnify the Board for any cost of liability incurred as a result of the implementation and enforcement of this provision provided that:
